Description

Have you ever heard about a massage therapist that talked too much or not enough? Perhaps one that wasn't really mindful of the client's time? Your relationship with your client is extremely important and based on trust. Without trust, your clients will seek out another therapist to carry out their massage.

Through this video-based course you will:

• Observe and reflect on ways in which you can communicate appropriately with your client by creating and maintaining verbal boundaries
• NOT talking about yourself
• Table Etiquette - the rules of talking
• The importance of talking
• How to talk with people
• Identify appropriate table etiquette and review the importance and rules of talking as well as cell phone etiquette in the massage practice.

Discover how you might be missing the mark when it comes to the right amount of communication, appropriate massage etiquette, and how your polished professionalism can keep clients coming back again and again.

Course Objectives

• Discover the ways in which you can communicate appropriately with your client by creating and maintaining verbal boundaries.
• Observe appropriate table etiquette and the importance and rules of talking as well as cell phone etiquette in the massage practice.
